Kenworth announced Wednesday that its new 76-inch mid-roof sleeper for the T680 and T880 models is now in production.

The sleeper was designed for bulk tank, flatbed and other truck operators who prefer a lower roof.

The new sleeper offers 100-pound weight savings for additional payload capacity and profit opportunity, and less aerodynamic drag for low load height operations with up to a 5 percent fuel economy savings.

It also has six-and-a-half feet of headroom, a roomy work environment, liftable lower bunk and side storage towers. The back wall can also be configured with an optional upper bunk or a sleeper storage unit. A premium sound system and a mount for the customer to install a flat screen TV are among the other options available.
